Corey Stingley's family said the 16-year-old died while being restrained by customers at a West Allis convenience store.

"He was happy," said Beverly Mosley, Stingley's great aunt. "He loved to go to school. Loved his friends."

WISN 12 News spoke to the convenience store clerk. He said that on Dec. 14, Stingley was in the store at 92nd Street and Schlinger Avenue. He said he saw Stingley place a bottle of alcohol in his backpack, then came to the register to pay for an energy drink.

The clerk said he recognized the teen because he had stolen alcohol three hours earlier, but did not want to confront the teen because they were alone in the store at the time.

The clerk said he had hoped the teen would confess, but instead he said Stingley reached over the counter to get his card back. At that moment, three customers reacted and grabbed Stingley's arms, legs and head until police arrived.

According to the clerk, who did not want to be identified, no one had noticed that Stingley had stopped breathing.

While paramedics were able to revive Stingley, he remained hospitalized on life support and passed away in late December.

Mosley said someone needs to be held responsible in Stingley's death.

"They are caught on tape with the boy in a choke hold," she said. "They had force."

A representative with the Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office said the case is being reviewed, but no decision on charges has yet been made.

West Allis police representatives said the video can not be released until the investigation has been concluded.
